Sally’s grandparents came
to Dakota 100 years ago and settled on land that had been the territory
of Tillie’s people. These two unlikely friends and colleagues share
stories of how they met, began collaborating and what each has discovered
about the other’s cultural herstory in the process. Along the way
they explore the oppressive impact of sexism, Christianity, homesteading
and historical bias.
The presenters trace how a legacy of friendship
and cooperation between First Nations and settlers was shattered by racism
and treaty violations and then move to create the conditions for rebuilding
friendship networks. The roles of women and children are highlighted.
Audience workshop participation is through group
activities, role playing, listening skill activities and stories which
are utilized to explore the feelings and attitudes that emerge when dealing
with these issues. |
